A Big Fxnress IsnbberY.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Oct. Am extern
sive express robbery occurred several days
ago on the Iron Mountain road, between
here and Northern Fexas. The messenger
in charge checked his way-bills 10. K at
Texarkana, and said he had to go to Dallas
to see the superintendent about something
He returned and went to st. Louis, thence
over in Illinois and has not been seen since
The amount of the robbery is from $50, 600
to $50, 600 and suspicion points strongly to
the missing messenger, j. B. Owens, one of
the Oldest mon on the run, who had previ-
ously taken $500 900 through safely. As
the messengers are never allowed the COM
bination, it is supposed he was in collusion
with some agent who knew 1t it.

TRINIDAD, Col, Oct. A brutal mur-
der occurred here early yesterday morning
over which considerable excitement exists,
and talk of lynching the guilty party is
heard. James Redmond and Joe Mona
mara came from the country yesterday and
began drinking heavily. The spree kept up
till 2 O'Clock in the morning, when both,
almost dead drunk, started for their board
ing house, contrary to the desire of Red
mond, who wanted to continue the debauch.
Ascending the stairs of their hotel they
made so much noise that the proprietor told
them they must bs quiet or leave the house.
Redmond grabbed McNamara's coat collar
and started pulling the latter after him.
When about half way down Mcnamara
pulled Redmond's head back with his right
hand and with his left drew a razor across
his throat, almost severing the head. Red
mond died in a few minutes. The murderer
was arrested, Jailed, and, when he became
sober, denied any knowledge of anything
about the crime

A Family Feud.

GRIFFIN, Ga, Oct IL 2-Information of a
bloody ending of a family feud of long
standing has just reached here. Inc the
northwestern part Of Monroe county, near
the SpaldiHg line, the Hands and Coins live.
They are both families Of influence and re-
spsctabiliCy For long years they lived
paaceably together in neighbofly sort Of
way, Several years ago some local matter
caused an estrangement between tie two
families, This ill-feeling was nursed in the
breast Of each until intense hatred existed
between the members Of each family.
Sunday afternoon A. J. Coin and William
Hand, while going along the public road,
met each other face to face. Some words
passed between them. The bad feeling soon
asserted itself, and in a few moments both
parties had drawn their pistols and began
firing al each other. 1t is disputed ques-
tion which fired first Hand received pis~
tol ball in his right shoulder and the left
side Of his abdomen Coin was shot in or
near the center of the abdomen. After
Coin had been shot and after having put
two balls into the body of Hand, he took a
step further and sent another ball crashing
through Hands haaa, killing him instantly.
Coin is not yet dead, but his wound is con-
sidered fatal

Tragedy-Searohing for tho Slayer.
MECHANIcsBURG. O., Oct. tl.-Since the
murder of Ora Neer, Saturday night, by
John Potts, this village has been one Of an x
ious excitement. Soon after the flight Of
Potts posses of men formed and departed in
all directions to try to capture him, but up
to this hour he ia still at large. About
o'clock Sunday morning he was at the house
of his brother-in-law, James Mansfield, at
about seven miles east and persuaded Mans
field to 90 to Potts house to get his clothes.
Mansfield was on his way to Potts house
when posse stopped kim, and learned that
he had just left Potts at his house. The
party took Mansfield in charge and went
back, but Potts had fled and nothing further
has been heard Of him.
The murder was in cold blood. Neer and
Potts, with number OF others, were at
William Clancy's pool room. Both Neer
and Potts were somewhat under the influ-
ence of liquor, and were seated close by
each other, when Neer said to Potts, Potts
you - -, give me chew of tobacco" !"
Potts gave him the tobacco, and while Neer
was biting off the tobacco Potts stabbed him
four times, once in the right breast once in
the left breast, once in the left shoulder and
on the left arm
Neer did not complain, and no one seemed
to know that he was hurt until he fell from
his chair behind the stove, some three min
utes after being stabbed. Potts was still in
the room at that time, but Immediately fed
Neer died inside OF fifteen minutes He was
the support Of widowed mother and a
brother, but had become very dissipated,
and it is reported that there was i'll feeling
between them on account Of girl OF loose
morals The town council will undoubtedly
offer reward for the arrest Of Potts. Cor
oner Dowell is holding an inquest.

was formerly commenced this morning.
The project under consideration is the i'm

with the lakes in such a manner as to pro-

The oAlssoNs COMPLETED.
For tho Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad
Bridge at Cincinnati

CINCINNATI, Oct. 12.-The caisson for the
bridge pier of the Chesapeake Sc Ohio rail-
road on the Cincinnati side was completed
last Saturday, The only work that remains
to be done is to pack the intervening space
between the rocks with concrete. Two boats
are kept busy day and night grinding up
the stone for the concrete, and the space
will be filled in this week. The pier on this
side is fully twenty feet above water, and
the pier on the Covington side is about
twelve feet above water. The are both
above danger so far as the water is con-
cerned, and work on them will be pursued
very rapidly from now on
The work on the shore piers that was
abandoned soma time since has been re-
suned again, and Engineer Randolf, under
whose careful supervision the piers have
been conStruc,ad, is of the opinion that all
the piers will be ready for the iron work
this year. The Iron work is all ready to
put up as soon as the piers are all com
pleted. Every piece is marked for its place,
and all that will have to be done is to stick
it together.
There have been three sets of men en-
ployed constantly on the caissons since the
work was commenced, each set working

day and night. There has been no accident
Of any serious consequence at the caissoni
save the drowning of one man, which waI
the result Of his own carelessness. During
the building of the st. Louis bridge over
one hundred men were killed. For the past
two weeks the men at work on the caissOn
have been receiving increased pay, from the
fact that the depth under water made the
work more dangerous and laborious
The men for the past several weeks have
been affected with q curious disease Their
hands and arms swell morS than double
their natural size. The employees claim that
it is the water that poisons their hands,
while others think that it is causel by the
impure air that they inhale. Those at work
now all wear gloves.
